While it is true that the "records" are kept in SLC and each ward, based on their ward id, is assigned those names residing in their geographical boundries. When someone moves and does not give a forwarding address, usually someone less active, then those records are sent to SLC, to a general account.
There are service missionaries who do all they can to find where these people have moved so that their records can be assigned to the ward where they live. This is true of all records.
As far as what information is on these records it is a record of ordinances and ordinations. For those who have had a disciplinary action it is a record of the result of that action. In the case of a Stake disciplinary action these records are kept in the stake where they happened. When a person comes back in for reversal of that action the records is sent to where they reside at the time and the Stake President where they reside contacts former Stake President, if possible to get any additional information.
It does not show callings held, How many years you were a tithe payor or not.
